During my Code Academy training for HTML and CSS, I learned how to add images to a webpage and set a background image, similar to how you see on this webpage. Before these tutorials, I had ZERO idea how webpages were designed, and to be completely honest.. they seemed quite overwhelming and complicated to make. Little did I know was that I would soon be capable of steering an entire webpage to my will!
One of the most fascinating things I also learned in this tutorial was how we can link CSS and HTML together in order to design a very eye-catching webpage. The fact that they go together like peanut butter and jelly was very interesting to me. I have worked with programming languages such as Java and C++ before, but never have I combined languages. This was definitely a first for me.
Overall, learned a lot of beneficial information in this tutorial which will assist me in this class in the future, and if I ever decide to go into web development. I learned how to create tables in HTML, manage data, sync it with CSS, and a myriad of other concepts. Now, whenever I open up the source code for a webpage, I'm able to understand exactly how it was created and am able to decompose it into smaller pieces.
